‘Bully Blocking contains many imaginative suggestions for parents and children on how to cope
with the problem of being victimised by their peers at school.’

author of Bullying in Schools and What to Do About It
‘Evelyn Field’s thoughtful and beautifully written book is both timely and needed,
providing young people and their carers with a variety of skills, knowledge and strategies to
counter the problem of bullying and teasing. The illustrations and activity pages ensure the
user-friendliness of the book for young people. Bully Blocking is a “must read” for parents
who want to give their children the gift of a range of social and emotional competencies to
help them traverse the sometimes rocky terrain of the schoolyard and beyond.’
Associate Professor Michael Carr-Gregg, PhD MAPS,
author of Surviving Year 12 and co-author of Adolescence
‘Evelyn Field has drawn on her vast clinical experience over many years of working with
children, their families and teachers to write a superb book about all aspects of bullying.
Beginning with descriptions of different types of bullying, Field goes on to list the manifestations
and consequences of bullying, and devotes the rest of the book to information and
practical exercises as to what parents, teachers (and children, too) can do. It is written in a style
that is interesting, very practical and easy to read. Bully Blocking is an invaluable resource for
children, parents, teachers and all professionals working with children who are aware of the
often devastating consequences of bullying that is allowed to go unchecked.’
Professor Frank Oberklaid,
Director, Centre for Community Child Health,
Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne
‘Parents of today’s children see no place for bullying. They also are seeking a strong partnership
with schools to ensure all children are happy and safe at school. In Bully Blocking, Evelyn
Field provides parents with a most practical and easy-to-read road map into the future without
bullying. Parentswho unfold Evelyn’s road map will find support and confidence to make that
journey successful for their children and their school communities.’
Duncan McInnes, Executive Officer,

‘This is a book packed with practical ideas for parents and children to use in understanding
and addressing bullying. Evelyn writes with confidence and clarity, and I like her lighthearted
presentation. Few of the books available on bullying target both the parent and the
child readership – Bully Blocking does. It is easy to read, and the extensive information is
presented in an attractive format.’
